What Do You Want For Tea?

I want CRISPS! (Kaiser Chiefs)

Lyric of the year? Post your favourite...


EDIT: I should have made this OP clearer. What I am looking for here is the most memorable lyric of the year - the one that stands out...

For instance, for 2002 the lyric that fits this description the best is surely Shakira's "Lucky that my breasts are small and humble / so you don't confuse them with mountains"...

Oh dear. That went down like a sack of, er, crisps didn't it?

I think you've been listening to a different playlist to me - I'm not familiar with any of those (apart from Ciara).

For me the runner-up, I think, behind the OP's lyric is from Alphabeat - '10000 Nights': "I was not looking for arty-fartsy love".

As for my vote for best lyric of the year - that's easy.

From Frank Turner's song 'Photosynthesis' (http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=mQMVHhxTtLc), the moment when an already great song catches fire:

"And if all you ever do with your life / is just photosynthesize
Then you'll deserve every hour of your sleepless nights / that you waste wondering when you're gonna die"
